Job description

We are looking for applicants for an Assistant Professor position in the field of Modeling of Plasma Surface Interaction. We welcome applicants with a theoretical or numerical background to explain the mechanisms of plasma-surface interaction. The scope could range from elementary processes, via particulate modeling and statistical modeling to more global approaches.

You will be working as a PI within the group Elementary Processes in Gas Discharges (EPG) of the Department of Applied Physics and Science Education (APSE) at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). This group works on a large variety of plasma related topics. The group is active in both experimental and theoretical/numerical work.

You will be responsible for setting up and driving your own independent research program, by generating funding, and supervising/coaching students at the bachelor/master/PhD level. As an Assistant Professor you are expected to participate in and contribute to the development of the Applied Physics bachelor's and master's teaching programs. At the same time, you will benefit from the resources and collaborative environment of a larger research unit and an open, collegial department. You will contribute to the success of the research group, department, and associated institutes by initiating new internal and external collaborations and proactive participation. Female candidates are explicitly invited to apply.

We offer an appointment as Assistant Professor, with a career perspective that ranges up to Associate or full Professor in due time. If you have a more senior profile, a tailor-made career proposal will be considered.

Job requirements

  • Independent, motivated researcher, with a PhD in (applied) physics, chemistry, chemical or electrical engineering, or another relevant field of science and preferably at least 2 years of experience as post-PhD researcher.
  • Ability to conduct high quality academic research, reflected in demonstrable outputs.
  • Motivated to teach, contribute to teaching processes, and to develop excellent teaching skills.
  • Strong cooperation skills and ability to work and lead in an interdisciplinary team.
  • Effective communication and leadership skills, including coaching and mentoring of students and staff, leading a project or chairing a group.
  • Experience in acquiring external research funding from (inter)national funding bodies, or industry is an asset.
  • Excellent (written and verbal) proficiency in English. 

Conditions of employment

We offer a meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station and city center. In addition, we offer you:

  • A development track with the prospect of becoming Associate Professor and the possibility of an immediate tenured position.
  • A tailor-made start-up package to kickstart your career.
  • Female Assistant Professors starting within our department are entitled to join the Irene Curie Program, which includes a substantial, additional, start-up package.
  • Free access to high-quality training programs for academic leadership, the university teaching qualification program, research and valorization competences, and a dedicated mentoring program to help you get to know the university and the Dutch (research) environment.
  • Family-friendly initiatives are in place, such as the partner career support program to support accompanying partners, an international spouse program and sports facilities.
  • The opportunity to focus your career on research, teaching, or impact. You can develop your personal ambitions within the strategic objectives of the university.
  • A gross monthly salary of min. € 4537,- and max. € 7056,- (scale 11 and scale 12) in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.
  • Additionally, an annual holiday allowance of 8% of the yearly salary, plus a year-end allowance of 8.3% of the annual salary.
  • Partially paid parental leave and an allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
